Transgenic expression of microRNA-181d augments the stress-sensitivity of CD4(+)CD8(+) thymocytes.
Physiological stress resulting from infections, trauma, surgery, alcoholism, malnutrition, and/or pregnancy results in a substantial depletion of immature CD4(+)CD8(+) thymocytes. We previously identified 18 distinct stress-responsive microRNAs (miRs) in the thymus upon systemic stress induced by li...
